Through the past, darkly

[nightdog_barks]

Was channel-surfing the other night and ran across something I didn't even know we got -- the El Rey Network. They were running a Stargate: Atlantis marathon, so I stopped and watched a few episodes (one of them was "Grace Under Pressure," episode 2.14, where Rodney is trapped in the sunken puddlejumper). I hadn't watched any SG:A in YEARS, and it was just so ... nice, to see these guys again. So that sent me to my Memories on LJ to look at some McShep fic that I hadn't read in forever, and Logopetria by lavvyan is still as good as it was ... ten years ago. :D

So anyway. It is too warm for this time of year, ugh. Currently reading Robert Jackson Bennett's City of Blades.

El Rey is awesome. They are always running something completely ludicrous. And it's the only place I've ever been able to find THE INCREDIBLE HULK reruns.

I was never able to get into SG:A, but I was always impressed (and a little intimidated) by the fans' intensity. Right now I'm trying to prevent myself from getting shanghaied into MAGNIFICANT SEVEN (damn you, Eric Close and your dimples!), but there are SO MANY pairings and SO MUCH fanfic! Fic writers still post stories! They still have Big Bangs! THEY STILL HAVE CONVENTIONS. And I still haven't seen a single episode of the show all the way through.

Stanley Cup starts tonight. After the Golden Knights pre-show the hockey itself may be anti-climactic. I'm rooting for the Caps because Ovechkin, but I wouldn't be put out that much by the Vegas team winning.

Wait, there's a Magnificent Seven SERIES? I did not know this. Huh.

And yeah, I think SG:A was really popular right at about the same time Livejournal-based fandom was at its peak. I mean, remember the days when house_wilson was so incredibly busy, with like A DOZEN stories OR MORE posted in ONE DAY? And there was so much DRAMA? That was about the same time. It was sort of the Golden Age of Fandom in some ways. And it could get ... intense.

Heh, I am rooting AGAINST the Caps because Ovechkin. But I don't really care that much who wins. If the Winnipeg Jets had made it, I would have been pulling for them. :D

Remember Gate-House? I miss that a lot. Miss those days a lot.

And I miss you a lot, and keep trying to remind myself that she is still there; it's me that's gone away. But it's hard sometimes, you know? It's hard.

*hugs*

I remember Gate-House! And those days! Sometimes they were crazy, but they were good days.

And yep, I am still here. Although it did take me three days to reply. BUT THAT'S NOTHING NEW. :D
